Techwright Posted July 19 Posted July 19 These are just on another level. Whomever designed these is not paid enough. Um...how soon can we have these in the iCon store? 😁 https://www.boredpanda.com/team-mongolia-viral-olympic-games-uniforms/ 1
Frostbiter Posted July 19 Posted July 19 I would like some of those pieces in game. I think their uniforms look pretty good. Somehow America's formal uniforms have ended up looking like they're all going yachting for the last two Olympics. 1 Torchbearer Discount Heroes SG: Frostbiter - Ice/Ice Blaster Throneblade - Broadsword/Dark Armor Brute Silver Mantra - Martial Arts/Electric Armor Scrapper

Somehow America's formal uniforms have ended up looking like they're all going yachting for the last two Olympics. It's Ralph Lauren doing it, and they've got Polo icons on the left chest big enough that they can probably be seen by whatever sports blimp will be in the area. 🙄 You'd think it was 1984 or something. Actually, when you mentioned "yachting" I was expecting Nautica. I'm now starting to look for other countries' uniforms. Great Britain's track uniforms are by Addidas, and honestly they look a bit uninspiring, with the font for the country's name looking like someone was playing with the free fonts website. IMHO, Britain deserves better. The GB dress uniforms are also a little bland, but a second glance reveals some nice highlights. There's some nice embroidery on the back of the bomber-style jacket, in an arrangement of the four countries plant symbols. They apparently also have an alternate outfit with a casual Polynesian shirt style. Canada's is by lululemon. Not really feeling it. Ooohhh...Philippines has a great design for their boxers. Would love to see that "sling" brought into the game's wardrobe as well. I wonder if that would classify as a chest overlay or a shoulder? Haiti has an interesting design in the ceremonial uniform. I'm not sure what to make of the Mary Poppins boots however. South Korea has a great pattern on the ceremony outfit, but unfortunately, it will be on the inside lining of the jacket where no one will really see it. Ah, well, there's probably more great ones out there. I'm not a clothes horse so for me this is unusual. I guess my interest is in what could be ported over to game costuming. 1
Scarlet Shocker Posted July 20 Posted July 20 certainly some great inspirations for Icon outfits. 1 There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.

Greycat Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Honestly... yeah, it doesn't stand out but the pattern on the Canadian jackets isn't *awful.* I can appreciate subtle-ish. And yes, Mongolia and the Philippines have some nice designs there... 1 Kheldian Lore and Backstory Guide 2.0: HC edition Out to EAT : A look at Epic ATs - what is, could have been, and never was Want 20 merits?

ThaOGDreamWeaver Posted July 25 Posted July 25 (edited) UK kit is by Ben Sherman, and much as with that brand, looks...

The Aussie ceremonial jacket is likewise quite nice, though again, pairing it with shorts feels weird for a special ceremony. Guess I'm just too old fashioned.

Of course, for date night, budgie smugglers all round. Ripper. On that note, I am slightly disappointed that those Lululemon jackets aren't denim, for a proper Canadian tuxedo look, eh.
